Nice
|
|
|
Nice faces the
Mediterranean Sea. The water on the beaches have a characteristic color.
The dark blue deep portions stand out from the light greenish shallow
portions. The beach is a convenient 5 minute walk from downtown. The
sunbathers - many are topless - did not seem to mind cars and
pedestrians passing.
 |
A walkpath overlooking the
beach area goes up a hill, about a 15 minute climb. Atop the hill is
a beautiful waterfall

Monte Carlo (Monaco)
Monte
Carlo is a 30 minute drive east of Nice. It is famous for its glitzy
casino and luxury wharfs, which make it a favorite spot for celebrities.
 |
 The
casino building is huge and impressive as it overlooks both the sea
and the mountains. |
